Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent. Been seeing Dr Heller for +20 years. Very practical in his approach; in my opinion he doesn’t recommend medicines, procedures, etc unless really required or very helpful to my health. When he does recommend something, I always see improvements. Example: he recommended that I be tested for sleep apnea. Even though i was only diagnosis with a mild case / condition, he suggested I get a machine due to overall positive effects it can have on my health. I didn’t want to but decided to follow the advice. It was the best advice I have received in regards to my quality of sleep and overall health.

I have been going to Dr. Heller for 33 years. Although he cant spend the time he used to with his patients, he is still very thorough and knowledgeable. He has always taken the time to listen and provided me with an accurate diagnosis. His office runs efficiently. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs a family physician.

Nice enough but 10 days later still has not provided referral for cataract surgery required by Insurance. I need the surgery! I called referrals Dept; no one returned my call. I will be finding a new clinic and PCP in an attempt to have considerate patient care.
